THE BEST!!!

Yes!  THE BEST treatment of breast cancer with earlier diagnosis!!!

Earlier diagnosis gives more options for a more treatable disease.  This is not cookie-cutter medicine and does not mean a blanket recommendation but a customized, individualized treatment plan designed to fit you and your cancer!  That is the job of the breast doctor: to treat you as the woman who has the breast cancer.  Not to over treat (like has been in the news recently), but to make a treatment plan that is appropriate for you.  

Call 512-451-5788 to make an appointment today for:

  • Prevention, so that we may see FEWER breast cancers
  • RIsk Assessment so that we may make an EARLIER diagnosis
  • Personalized treatment plan, THE BEST for you


Together we can prevent 86,000 breast cancer cases this year!

EARLIER!!

Yes!  EARLIER diagnosis of breast cancer saves lives!!

We have all seen the USA statistics in this blog http://drwinsett.blogspot.com/2012/09/one-important-statistic.html.

Five year survival for breast cancer limited to the breast is 98%.

How do we achieve that success?

  • Appropriate screening, which means individualizing the recommendation for breast cancer screening to the woman based on her risk determined by:
    • Personal history
    • Family history
    • Personal genetics
    • Clinical characteristics like breast density


We offer a personal Breast Cancer Risk Assessment individualized to you derived from the information above and possibly the HALO Breast Pap Test, The BREVAGen Breast Cancer RIsk Assessment and/or BRACAnalysis (which ever may apply).  With this information we are able to give you a risk assessment and tailor the screening to you.  Call us 512-451-5788.    

Fortunately, most of you will never get breast cancer, but for those that will, our goal is to find it EARLIER!!

EARLIER doesn't just mean better treatment options but THE BEST!!! 

THE BEST!!! discussed in the next blog post.  Please check back tomorrow.
